#73 Stone, Commercial Grade, 3/4" Minus

#73 stone in a 3/4" minus size range is a versatile crushed aggregate commonly used in commercial construction projects. This material consists of crushed limestone or gravel, with particles ranging from 3/4 inch down to fine dust. The "minus" designation means it includes both the larger stones and the smaller fines, which help the material compact tightly and create a stable base.

The commercial grade of #73 stone ensures consistent quality and durability, making it ideal for high-traffic and heavy-load applications. Its excellent compaction properties make it a preferred choice for road base, parking lots, and under concrete slabs. The blend of sizes allows for minimal voids, resulting in a solid, stable surface that resists shifting and settling. While the fines improve compaction, they can also reduce drainage compared to more open-graded aggregates, so #73 stone is best used where stability is prioritized over permeability.
